  Still photos in 3d space camera fly through

  Posted by Joeythedog on October 21, 2005 at 7:54 pm

  Does anyone have any tips on a 3d photo gallery with the camera moving through randomly placed photos pausing on each one. I’m thinking of using a different camera for each photo to keep it simple.

  Thanks for your help

  If you have your camera parented to a 3d null your job will be a lot easier.
  Create a null, make it 3d. Create a camera, parent it to the null. Easy as pie.

  The all you have to do is animate the null to the exact position of the photo you want to highlight and your camera will aready be pointing directly at it from a decent distance. (Animate the rotation of the null and the camera’s z position to add spice.)
